Moreno talked about his game plan during the press conference as he said, “I’m still thinking I won the fight, but I definitely made mistakes in my last combat against Deiveson. Right now we have a specific plan, and that’s it. I don’t wanna say nothing extra because he has videos and everything, he’s following me, so that’s it. That’s my gameplay, surprise him.” In response to this, Deiveson Figueiredo prompted, “I’ve infiltrated someone in your team.”

The back and forth between the two heated rivals did not end there. As the two posed, Deiveson Figueiredo and Brandon Moreno continued their jabs at one another. As they faced off, Deiveson Figueiredo continued to mock Moreno, claiming that he was in Brazil, Figueiredo’s hometown and that he would have the advantage here, not Moreno.

Eventually, the two champions of the flyweight division had their belts brought to them. This seemed to fuel the fire as Figueiredo showed his belt off to Moreno, teasing him. And as they posed with their titles, Figueiredo offered Moreno his title. However, Moreno kept his cool and simply replied, “January 21st”. It seems Moreno has learned to not engage with him under such circumstances.
